KABOBfest: Keffiyeh

Thanks to Randa Jarrar at Rockslinga! I thought this would dis-Orient us! there's an interesting table w/ a Kaffiyah as 'decoration'///speaking of TABLES & consciousness & writing nooks/crannies...

i love the word usage: terrorgasm . these guys are funny. i think it's Iron sheik's voice, not so sure. good friend's w/ his aunt and her husband. he's originally from dearborn, michigan.

They are mocking the popularity of the Palestinian/political invasion as a fashion statement, right? IN Kara Keeling's class, we had a dynamic conversation about this very cultural object. We concluded once the object has been co-opted, it no longer has or retains its radical cache. As Professor K pointed out, the object makes that foray into public sphere after it has been divested of its power (my paraphrase)

alex, remember more about that dizzying conversation about scarves and aesthetics?
